Foreword
CONGRATULATIONS!
You've made the right decision to take the TOEFL iBT? test--the test that gives you the advantage over other English-language tests.
There's no question that the TOEFL? test is the most widely respected English-language test in the world-- that's why we say the TOEFL test can help you "go anywhere." TOEFL scores are accepted by more than 10,000 universities and other institutions in over 150 countries, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the U.S., the U.K. and all across Europe and Asia. This gives you the flexibility of sending your test scores to any of these destinations. It's no wonder more than 35 million people have taken the TOEFL test since it was introduced in 1964.
In fact, it's the only test that simulates university classroom and campus life and was developed with the help of leading universities. By doing well on the TOEFL iBT test, you will prove you have the reading, listening, speaking and writing skills that universities are looking for--and show that you can effectively combine these skills to communicate your ideas in and out of the classroom. Preparing for the test will help you build the English skills you need to succeed in an academic setting and beyond.
